Eastbourne Borough v Barrow

Eastbourne Borough play host to strugglers Barrow at the Langley Sports Club on Sunday as they look to break into the top half of the Blue Square Premier table.

The Sports currently find themselves in 12th place with 60 points from 45 games and a victory on Sunday could see them climb as high as 10th place.

Midfielder Andy Atkin could well miss out again as he struggles to overcome a niggling groin injury.

Centre-back Marc Pullan is also rated doubtful, while Matt Smart is pushing for a starting berth after recovering from a knock.

Barrow joint bosses Dave Bayliss and Darren Sheridan have no new injuries to contend with for the trip to Eastbourne.

The Bluebirds hold a four-point cushion on the dreaded drop zone, and as such have already secured the Blue Square Premier status for next season.

Defenders Mike Pearson and Lee Woodyatt remain on the treatment table with respective leg injuries, while striker Nick Rogan is pushing for a starting berth after impressing in the 1-1 draw against Torquay.
